Crossfire 0.91.4 is released



There are four separate tar archives in the Crossfire 0.91.4 distribution:

sums (bsd)  filename
56109   401 crossfire-0.91.3-0.91.4.diff.gz
27696   602 crossfire-0.91.4.arch.tar.gz
09063  1222 crossfire-0.91.4.maps.tar.gz
54168  1150 crossfire-0.91.4.tar.gz

crossfire-0.91.4.tar.gz contains the actual program code, as well as
premade archetype, bitmaps, and xpm files.  See the CHANGES file
in this archive for everything that has changed.

crossfire-0.91.4-maps.tar.gz contains all the maps.  A new section
has been added (Accessible by accessing a ship in Scorn)

crossfire-0.91.4-arch.tar.gz contains the unpacked archetype (arch)
directory.  This file is not needed if you just want to compile the
games and play.  The contents of this archive is used to create
the archetypes, bmaps, font, and X PixMap (XPM) files.  You only need
it if you want to add new archetypes, or mess around with the existing
ones.

crossfire-0.91.3-0.91.4.diff.gz is a compressed patch file.  It patches
all files that are in the core distribution.

AVAILABILITY:

Crossfire is avaible on the following ftp sites

Primary:
    ftp.i.net:/pub/crossfire2 (192.243.32.18)
    ftp.ifi.uio.no:/pub/crossfire (129.240.82.2) 

Secondary:
    yoyo.cc.monash.edu.au:/pub/crossfire (130.194.9.1)
    ftp.cs.city.ac.uk:/pub/games/crossfire/
    ftp.sunet.se:/pub/unix/games/crossfire (130.238.127.3)

I uploaded this version to both primary sites, there may be a slight
delay for the secondary sites to receive this.

Note:  The ftp.i.net site has two crossfire directories - /pub/crossfire
and /pub/crossfire2  The new source is in the later directory.

In future, ftp.i.new will be the only site I upload to. I have been
set up with permissions to upload to that site/directory directly
(thanks nabil@i.net), and it is a lot more convenient as well as
faster. Those who are mirror should change there set up to get new
sources off ftp.i.net - at least if they want to get them as soon as
possible. I am not sure how ftp.ifi.uio.no will mirror, but I would
imagine you could still get the sources off that site with a slightly
delay.
